Looks like sometimes getting lucky can turn out to be unlucky...

The FA were allowed to send an 8th team to Europe by chance, since out of all the 54 UEFA members, the EPL was one of the 3 leagues that "won the raffle" and could send their most fair play team to the EL.

Now, since England is sending 8 teams to Europe, the coefficient points their clubs are getting are divided by 8, while the ones Italy will get are divided by 6... this could have a big impact at the end of the season if english teams don't fare well.

Let's not forget that, as things stand now, Italy will finish ahead of England in the coefficient table if they were to get the same amount of points.

thx decard



italy also had a very bad year, which gonna fall out. 11.357 pts season, while england had a 15.250 season.

Didn't know this.

England won't send any team to the quarters anyways

Spain > Bundesliga > Serie A > French Ligue 1 > BPL

As i said last season.



Wanna bet ?

chelsea will be lucky to get past 2-nd round after group stage.
I expect their group, in spite of shit opposition, to be won with 1-0's

I think they will be sent packing by a spanish team, either of the Madrid ones.

City won't pass group stage. Its easy to plug in a player on paper and tip them to win the CL. On the pitch it could be tricky.
Utd = van graal = autofail
Chelsea has over 50% of the team in shit form but most importantly the engine, fabregas. Shit defence this season, i mean arsanal tore you to pieces. Arsanal ffs :rofl:

It's been 3 games into the league lol.
Look at how bad barca did last year, and they ended up winning CL. Sorry Baal but in this one you are wrong
I feel city-chelsea-United will all do very good this year. Arsenal Idk why, but they don't have it in them imo. Still good team tho

Yep

I'll make a proper thread in a bit to keep track of this "race" during the season

We are fucked by this too, Eredivisie have sent a club thar regularly fights against relegation. Needles to say they lost two times. That doesn't bother me. What bothers me is that we have to divide points even more. If we get lucky Ajax Az and Groningen will do well, I won't see PSV collecting too much points... Aka we might lose our regular champions league spot. For a league that won it quite a lot in the past that is a real blow.
